[QUOTE="danielos, post: 25032"] If this is a LCD iMac, you might want sleep. LCD backlights have a set life, which it a certain amount of hours before the backlight goes out. For example: my monitor's backlight lasts for 50,000 hours and in a year i have used it for 3200 hours. So to lengthen the life, I have it set to go off after two minutes of inactivity. [/QUOTE]
